White hat versus black hat

[erinphoebe]

SEO techniques can be classified into two broad categories: techniques that search engines recommend as part of good design, and those techniques of which search engines do not approve. A search engine optimization technique is considered white hat SEO if it conforms to the search engines' guidelines and involves no deception. We can say the legal SEO is a white hat SEO. White hat SEO is not just about following guidelines, but is about ensuring that the content a search engine indexes and subsequently ranks is the same content a user will see. Black hat SEO attempts to improve rankings in ways that are disapproved of by the search engines, or involve deception. One black hat technique uses text that is hidden, either as text colored similar to the background. Invisible iframes is yet another black hat SEO technique, where a page you see is not necessarily from the company that is hosting that webpage. People create these types of pages in order to download software on your computer in the background without your knowledge.

White Hat SEO - is devoted to properly optimize a site to attract crawlers attention and to build long-friendly relationship with search engines.

Black Hat SEO - uses unethical ways just to get higher rankings. Door-way pages, cloaking, improper redirect, link farms, keyword stuffing and invisible text are just some of the techniques that falls under black hat.

Black hat is like a demon. It will help you in the near future but the search engines will definitely come to know about it and then the chances of getting your site banned are more.

I think...
White hat:
A white hat hacker breaks security for non-malicious reasons, for instance testing their own security system. This type of hacker enjoys learning and working with computer systems, and consequently gains a deeper understanding of the subject. Such people normally go on to use their hacking skills in legitimate ways, such as becoming security consultants. The word 'hacker' originally included people like this, although a hacker may not be someone into security.

Black hat:
A black hat hacker, sometimes called "cracker", is someone who breaks computer security without authorization or uses technology (usually a computer, phone system or network) for vandalism, credit card fraud, identity theft, piracy, or other types of illegal activity.

A very informative content, but my question for you is this, why is it that there's sites who does black hat seo and pr soars high without being banned by google?

[claudia]

Black hat SEO is quite helpful in getting high rank for your keywords. You can easily achieve the desired position in search engines in a very short period. Many people use several tactics. But that unethical process is also quite risky at the same time. If Google can identify you that you're doing something wrong you can get penalized or even get banned from search engine index.

It's funny, years ago if you where to comment on blogs using anchor text links, that was considered black hat. Now, that is normal for any white hat SEOer. Where do we draw the line?

[harryfrm]

The black hat techniques are against the rules of search engine.

[chanidiya]

Blackhat SEO should be avoided as much as possible. Because it is an unacceptable method and search engines will severely penalize it. It is, however, very effective for short term gain.

There is no doubt that white hat is better and more useful than black hat.

black hat seo can get you fast on top of Google, you will think you did right thing, and then one day you will disappear and never comeback again.
This is why white hat is slow but only way to achieve high rankings.
